Well, in gaming, I found the 64 bit version of Vista as about 5 to 7 % faster.

Now that you say that, I do recall someone stating that the 64-bit version of Crysis does run better and faster than the 32-bit version.

So just installed 64bit ultimate and found out coretemp doesn't work unless you hit F8 during boot and disable the driver signing thing.

But on the bright side, Speedfan does and my speedfan temps on the cores were usually within a degree of coretemp.

So here's the link:
http://www.almico.com/sfdownload.php

Also, does anyone else notice a difference with internet explorer? It just seems like things are moving ALOT faster now. I'm used to using firefox, but IE has been excellent for me so far.

Thats not *pure* 64-bit though. Its an x86 program that works in x64. We are looking for pure 64-bit drivers and programs in this thread.

That was the only thing stopping me from running wholly in x64.
Its like that with lots of Wireless adapter brands.

Try to keep to native 64-bit stuff only guys, using software that isnt native 64bit doesnt give any performance benefits.. which is why anyone running 64bit uses it, for them supposed perm gains. I've basically given up for now on using 64bit, some aps I use wont run under 64bit, so I'm kinda stuck for now.

Nah I got my wireless issue sorted, bought an "unknown" that has drivers that work great with XP64. I'm just not using 64bit atm because of apps like modbin, which absolutely will not run under a 64bit OS, and I'm too lazy to set up dual boot The chip in my POS Belkin adapter is a ZyDAS ZD1211B-QF.

ZyDAS HAD 64bit drivers... but they were taken over. Good luck trying to find their 64bit drivers now they just dont seem to exist anymore... unless some japanese site has them.

It is more than that... It addresses memory faster, thus reducing bottlenecks and increasing speed, among other things.

check my specs...
and check the 3dmark06 results:
XP PRO (32) :12564
VISTA ULT.(32):11735
VISTA ULT.(64):12512 compared with xp, this is impressive!

Here are my figures for the XP's and Vista's. I coudlnt get PCMark05 to work properly in XP x64. It would run, but it would give me a score of N/A for whatever reason.

Was yours on stock or overclocked when you ran those? I benched my rig in my System Specs at stock.
